FGIS fees

FGIS fees are charges collected by the Federal Grain Inspection Service to cover the costs of inspecting and certifying the quality and quantity of grains and commodities. These fees ensure that grain sold or traded meets quality standards and that measurements are accurate, fostering fair transactions. The fees are typically paid by producers, buyers, or sellers, depending on the circumstances, and are used to maintain inspection services that support the transparency and integrity of the grain market.
